3But Peter said, Ananias, why has the Evil One put it into your heart to be false to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back part of the price of the land?
4While you had it, was it not your property? and after you had given it in exchange, was it not still in your power? how has this purpose come into your mind? you have been false, not to men, but to God.
5And at these words, Ananias went down on the earth, and his life went from him: and great fear came on all who were present.
6And the young men went and made ready his body, and took it out, and put it in the earth.
7And about three hours after, his wife, having no knowledge of what had taken place, came in.
8And Peter said to her, Give me an answer: was this amount of money the price of the land? And she said, Yes, it was.
9But Peter said to her, Why have you made an agreement together to be false to the Spirit of the Lord? See, the feet of the young men who have put the body of your husband in the earth, are at the door, and they will take you out.
